1000 Words – The Possibilities of Today

1000 Words is a collection of quick reads to help me find perspective in the midst of everyday life, small reminders to keep pursuing life to the fullest.

“Fill your mind with the possibilities of today, not the missed opportunities of yesterday.”

As we move through the day our minds are filled with one of three things, what happened in the past, what might happen in the future, or what’s happening right now.

Unfortunately, the disappointments of the past seem to weigh heavier and hold hostage a disproportionate amount of our mental energy. This is particularly unproductive because the past is the one thing we will never be able to change.

Focus instead on the future and all the great possibilities that can exist, for these are the things that you can actually change.
